Analytical Study On Factors Influencing Scale Of Foreign Debt

Since the 1980s, many developing countries used foreign debt to shake off the backward situation and develop the country's economic. Foreign debt borrowing played a very important role on the development of the developing country: make up for the shortfall in funds, promote the upgrading of the industrial structure, expand exports and promote rapid economic growth. However, the debt crisis erupted unceasingly for the nearly 20 years, caused the foreign debt practice of the developing country to receive more and more questions. Therefore, under the world economics integration's background, carefully examines the economic effect of the foreign debt objectively again, deepens the research of the foreign debt, strengthens to the foreign debt scale management, will have a vital practical significance in the use of the foreign debt effectively and the development of socialist market economy. Borrowing foreign debt is an important form of using foreign capital. It has an important significance in accelerating the economic development, strengthening the macroeconomic regulation and the industry restructures controlling. But on the other hand, borrowing foreign debt needs to repay principal and interest. It may cause debt crisis if the foreign debt scale has surpassed our country economy actual need and the credit capacity.Specially along with the depth of the economic globalization advancement's and the unceasing innovation of the money markets, international capital movement's scale expands day by day, the flowing speed is also getting quicker and quicker, and the foreign debt implication's risk is also getting bigger and bigger.Based on the above consideration and unified my interest, I has conducted the analytical study on factors influencing scale of foreign debt in some correlation theories and above the practice foundation. I hope that can provide beneficial model for the later research.This article altogether divides into seven chapters. The first chapter is the introduction, mainly introduced this article research background, the research significance, the research content and the research technique. The second chapter first introduced the related foreign debt theory.Looking from the foreign debt theory development, the special studies related to the foreign debt were quite few in the early time. The viewpoints of the related foreign debt's scale, the management, and payment manifested most in the bond theory. The Kinesis'bond view is the most representative one. The development economic theory later :Harrod-Domar development model and H.Chenery"the double gap theory", only then truly discussed the foreign debt as the international economic development method. This article also introduced Knox foreign debt theory and other foreign loan viewpoint; these theories had a important guiding sense to study the analysis of foreign debt.The third and fourth chapter introduced the foreign debt development and the present scale situation of our country. It used canonical parse method to analyze the influence of foreign debt policy, national economy level, budget deficit and payments position f. The research discovered that our country's foreign debt policy, the national economy level and the payments position were affecting our country's foreign loan scale to a certain extent. GDP, the balance of household savings deposits,the import and export condition and the foreign exchange reserve have important influence to our foreign debt scale. A country's economic development was deciding the scale of the foreign debt, this is because the development level of the productive forces, commodity economy's degree of development is the basic causes for the foreign debt. National financial circumstance directly decides foreign debt scale, structure, use, benefit and final repayment situation. A country's payments position and the size of foreign debt scale is closely linked, this is because the international trade relations' development was deciding the international credit relation's development. Export capacities of a country decide the payment of the foreign debt, and decide finally whether the cycle of the foreign debt carries on smoothly.The fifth chapter used the method of the gray connection analysis. It quoted related data of the foreign debt scale, and carried on the empirical analysis and the standard research, discussed and analyzed the main factors of foreign debt scale. The main factors include: foreign exchange reserve, total export, gross import, the balance of household savings deposits. The more the foreign exchange reserve is, the more it will repay and borrow. Along with the violent inflow of the international capital, foreign exchange reserve inflated suddenly, and had became one of primary causes that our foreign debt scale increased. The other two important attributes are the total export and the gross import. Since 2001, we had added foreign financing under the trade credit within 3 months to the foreign debt statistics. So the trade credit volume by the cargo import and export increased year by year, and caused the short-term foreign debt sudden growth. The balance of household savings deposits also became one of the main factors that influence our foreign debt scale.The sixth chapter introduced Thai, Brazil, and the Russian foreign debt scale development and the scale management, which have provided beneficial model to our foreign debt scale management: First ,we should pay great attention to the use of the foreign debt in the foreign debt scale management to enhance the foreign debt operational effectiveness. Second, we should enhance the foreign exchange reserve ability and export ability, so that we would have enough ability to repay the due debt and avoided the debt crisis.The seventh chapter is this article conclusion part. According to the above analysis of the foreign debt scale management, the international experience and the lesson, actual situation of the foreign debt management, we recommend the foreign debt management measure. First, standardize and improve the foreign debt management system, establish a sound monitoring system for foreign debt. Second, optimize the structure of foreign debt; improve the structure of foreign debt. We can optimize the structure of foreign debt through the four directions: period, currency, interest rates and the source. Third, arrange for the orientation of foreign debt reasonably; strengthen the use of foreign debt management. Fourth, strengthen the foreign debt risk management. Strengthen the foreign debt risk management, we should first consummate and perfect the guard mechanism of the debt risk .Second, the government should supervise the project and the audit work. Third, establish and improve the loan reserve mechanism. Through the establishment of loan reserve system, scatter and reduce the local government's debt burden, so as to avoid the accumulation of financial risks.
